Build the Invisible: My LSE Talk: Sports Career Tips - Thinking Short & Long-Term
It was a real pleasure to chat to the Sports Group at LSE recently. I had the chance to discuss some of my developmental thoughts and routines:
⏳How to Think Long Term and Short Term.
💡Don't worry about finding a sports job in the short term and don't be deterred if it doesn't happen straight away.
💼 The underlying skillset is key. Be the best marketing, PR, social media, accounting executive first. Your first second and third job may not even touch the sports sector. Your more rounded skill set in the medium to long term gives you a much better chance of finding a long term sports job.
🔥 Every opportunity creates new opportunities.
💶 How to make the industry your identity and to understand the money flows.
📚How knowledge investment through 10 minutes a day compounds over weeks and months and you can join disparate dots.
🕸 Building the Invisible Frameworks.
🧠 Nothing is a waste and everything is an opportunity.
